    The Department of Transportation and Infrastructure is advising motorists to slow down and be careful when travelling on the Trans Canada Highway near Deer Lake. Recent rainfall has caused large potholes along the Tailrace bridge in front of Deer Lake Power and speed has been reduced to 30 kilometres per hour in that area.
